THE family of Nick Imudia is unhappy with the unprofessional manner the media has wrongly characterized the reporting of Nick Imudias death as suicide.
This is also supported by the Lagos State Commissioner of Polices office that has vowed to investigate the sudden death of Nick.
Neither did Nick call his brother in America with instructions on how to distribute his wealth, nor placed a call to his daughter with any instructions. How come the news was reported so hastilly (less than 3 hours from his death) before his family members even knew about it – and the medical team was still trying to resuscitate him at the hospital! The Imudia family wonders!!!, according to a statement by
Anthony N. Imudia, for the Imudia Family
Nick Imudia, until his death was the Group CEO of D.light International with Headquarters in Nairobi, Kenya, where he was residing. He managed the companys worldwide operations from Nairobi.
Nick was full of life and people that worked closely with him or met him in the last hours prior to the incident surrounding his death were shocked with the media attributing his death to suicide. He was on a short visit to Lagos after a brief trip to the Netherlands and was to return to Nairobi a day after his sudden death.
He comes from a close-knit family where support abounds and Nick never showed any sign of stress and he was not diagnosed as depressed at any point. The thought of suicide in the manner portrayed and hastilly reported by the news media is suspect.
Nick made his initial career mark with Nokia, the Finnish based Telecommunication Company before he was transferred from Helsinki to manage Nokia Asia operations in Singapore. Later in his career with Nokia, he was appointed as the Managing Director of Nokia West and Central Africa. When Microsoft bought Nokia, he opted to leave the company. Looking for a new challenge, he became the CEO of Konga Nigeria where he reengineered the companys operation.
At his prime age and the level of his achievements, people who knew Nick well are all shocked and do not accept the characterization of his death as suicide.
Members of Nicks family do request the media and the general public to allow them to grief their loved one without any unfounded rumour of the circumstances surrounding his death.
